Eurochoice Improves Ocean Shipment Tracking using Descartes MacroPoint™
12 Avril 2022 - 12:45PM
Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq: DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader
in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced
that Netherlands-based Eurochoice, a leading distributor of fresh
and frozen European fine foods to customers in South East Asia and
the Middle East, is using the cloud-based Descartes MacroPoint™
solution for real-time visibility into the status and location of
ocean container shipments as they are transported to destination
countries.
“As an important consolidation hub in The Netherlands,
Eurochoice makes it possible to deliver the products of leading
European brands at the frequency required by our diverse customer
base in Asia and the Middle East,” said Cees Mostert, Co-Founder
and owner at Eurochoice. “Using Descartes MacroPoint, we now have a
platform for tracking the movement of our high value ocean
shipments. It’s not only boosted the customer experience, but also
saves significant time identifying the correct shipment status.
This allows us to invoice customers much faster than without
shipment visibility, which improves our liquidity.”
The Descartes MacroPoint solution for ocean visibility provides
shippers, like Eurochoice, and ocean carriers with real-time
status, location and estimated-time-of-arrival (ETA) information on
ocean freight. By using a single platform to monitor the movement
of their shipments and communicate updates to customers, companies
can enhance supply chain performance and exception management. The
solution also helps shippers minimize container imbalance,
detention and demurrage fees, form more productive relationships
with carriers, and automate intermodal tracking as shipments
transition from ports of arrival to truck and rail modes of
delivery.
“We’re pleased the Descartes solution is helping Eurochoice to
ship goods more efficiently and provide customers with greater
insight into the status of their shipments,” said Elmer Spruijt,
Vice President at Descartes. “As ocean shipping volumes increase
and the industry continues to grapple with high rates, container
imbalances, capacity constraints and port congestion, Descartes
MacroPoint provides much-needed visibility and analytics on
shipments to help shippers and ocean carriers improve supply chain
management, minimize the impact of disruptions and enhance customer
service levels.”
